Reflections under the IB community theme - A poem by a 16 year old IB student in Green Land Pré Vert International School

I'm an MYP student in Green Land Pre Vert International School- Egypt. My personal projet is under the IB community theme. It is a book of poems expressing teens' fear of the future towards global poverty. This is my first submission under the name of: "The Good Part In Me". I hope it provokes people into action towards eradication of poverty.
